Erling Haaland’s entourage is set to meet bosses from Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool and Manchester City on Friday as the race for the Borussia Dortmnd star continues. Haaland’s father, former City midifielder Alf-Inge, along with agent Mino Raiola are travelling across Europe to search for a new club.
It is believed the pair held meetings with La Liga giants Real Madrid and Barcelona on Thursday and are now set for England.
Haaland is likely to be on the move this summer, after reportedly informing Dortmund bosses he intends to leave the club at the end of the season.
The Norwegian only signed for the Bundesliga giants in January of last year, but after scoring 49 goals in as many games, he is set for another move.
After meeting with Barca president Joan Laporta and Real chief Florentino Perez, Alf-Inge and Raiola will now visit London.

Mundo Deportivo report the two will meet with representatives from the Premier League’s biggest clubs, all of whom hope to sign the 20-year-old prodigy.
Speaking earlier this week, super-agent Raiola hinted that teams had missed the boat on his client, after underestimating his ability to succeed in a top-five league.
He told the Athletic: “With Haaland, everybody was wrong. He did things much quicker than everybody imagined.
“Haaland is in front of his own development. He is ahead of his own schedule. Maybe I was too careful when I said, ‘Oh no, let’s move to Dortmund instead of I-don’t-know-where’.

“This boy — I’m 100 per cent convinced and everybody’s convinced — can move to any club, wherever he wants, already on this level.
“And he could have done that last year. But maybe last year there were still teams (saying), ‘Oh, he was in Red Bull, can he do it in another club?’.
“He is quicker than his own prediction. So yeah, Haaland is the talk of the town.”
Haaland is believed to have a £66million release clause in his contract, although that doesn’t come into effect until the summer of 2022.
Raiola meanwhile has suggested that it is not out of the question that Haaland will remain with Dortmund for another season.
“I have the advantage of 25 years in the business at this level. I have changed the game, from an economical side, more than once,” he continued.
“I don’t get excited any more about that kind of thing. I know to wait.
“This is a moment of waiting and seeing what is in the best interest of the player. Sometimes the best interest of the player is not to move when everybody says he has to move.
“And sometimes it is in the best interest of the player to move when everybody says he has to stay. So we will see what happens.”
